Mr Connolly: I do not have it with me and you cannot tell me what to do. I asked this the other day in respect of tabling documents, and the order was that documents will be tabled on a resolution of the Assembly.
MR SPEAKER: Order!
Motion (by Mr Kaine) agreed to:
That the document to which Mr Connolly referred be tabled.
Mr Connolly: Will you give me leave to go to my office and get the document?
MR SPEAKER: If you wish you can do it now, or you can bring it in tomorrow.
MR BERRY: On a point of order, Mr Speaker: I would like to make a personal explanation pursuant to standing order 46.
MR SPEAKER: Do you claim to have been misrepresented?
MR BERRY: I do.
MR SPEAKER: Please proceed.
MR BERRY: Mr Speaker, the Chief Minister accused me of stripping the CDF. The fact of the matter - - -
Mr Kaine: I said that the Government stripped it, not you, and that is true.
MR BERRY: You had your finger pointed at me and you have said it in the past.
Mr Kaine: You were the only one here to listen. Your leader was, as usual, out of the Assembly.
MR SPEAKER: Order!
MR BERRY: Thank you for that admission. It is clear that I was accused of stripping the CDF. The CDF funds that were allocated under the Follett Labor Government were allocated in accordance with the requirements of the day. The Chief Minister alleges that something untoward was done. That was not the case.
Mr Speaker, Mr Kaine also alleged that the stripping of the CDF involved an amount of $21m.
Mr Kaine: On a point of order, Mr Speaker: I did not mention a sum of money.
MR BERRY: You will have your chance later.
